Whatever you choose make sure you inspect the quality of work undertaken. About three years ago, I had a TJM bullbar, siderails and steps fitted at its Myaree outlet in WA. Eighteen months ago while checking for a rattle underneath the vehicle, I noticed the bolts holding the running steps were half out. I decided then to inspect the rest of the work done. During the inspection I noticed the way the harness wiring was connected up to the wires coming out of the lights fitted in the bottom of the bullbar. No cable connectors were used instead the join consisted of the wires just twisted together and wrapped in insulation tape. Pity I did not find the shoddy work earlier as I would have raised hell.
